Warren;Thanks for the additional information and details on the Metropolis Theatre. It is listed in the 1914-1915 edition of the American Motion Picture Directory, so I presume was screening movies at that time.

My father, who is 93, remembers going to the Metropolis Theater as a young child with his brothers and sisters to watch cowboy movies. He told me it was evident that the theater, which was impressive, had seen better days. The movies were played without musical accompaniment.
